Episode Details

Have you ever noticed used equipment on Yad2 listed at nearly the price of new? This isn't just bad pricing — it's a symptom of a deeper market failure. In this episode, we explore why Israel's visible secondhand market is broken, why businesses hoard surplus equipment they'll never use, and how a direct approach — walking in and asking — can get you the same items for a fraction of the price. We break down the economics of anchoring bias, transaction costs, and how Israeli "dugri" culture makes cold approaches surprisingly effective. Whether you're outfitting a warehouse or just need a storage dolly, the invisible market might be your best bet.
